    New to me---battery issue

    Mine always runs between 13.9 and 14.whatever so that sounds right. Good luck - my baby has been in the shop all week (ha ha, 3 days) and I miss it! :cry

    Is it me or is it them?

    Living in a service-industry-oriented town, I am a BIG proponent of tipping. However, in this case I was forced by the warranty to take it to the local dealer. Any other (non-warranty) work and it's going to my regular mechanic, who not only owns a Vette (a C3 or C4) but likes mine almost as...

    04 Vert, Torch Red, 6,400 miles

    Dagnabbit, where were you 3 months ago?!?!?! :drool: Don't suppose you'd take a similar '98 (except black interior, 28,000 miles) in a straight trade? Didn't think so. :L

    Is it me or is it them?

    Update - I took the car in to the dealer for the THIRD time this morning. They just called and said they are replacing the entire shift assembly. HA! Signed, Feeling Vindicated p.s. even though the service writer felt compelled to tell me he gave the dealership that has the warranty "a...

    99 Wheels- keep them or change them?

    I can't see your picture...:cry I have the "wagon wheels" and my take is, can't see 'em when I'm in the car! I think I'll save the $$$ and get an upgraded exhaust system instead. I can still hear the car (or rather, NOT hear it) when I'm in it. :lou

    Convertible cover rubs the top

    I fixed the squeaking top - I knew I was going to take a drive to Oakland on Saturday and couldn't face 3 hrs. of squeaking there and 3 hrs. back, so I put the top in the half open/half closed position, hit every screw and connection I could find with some sewing machine oil, and voila - no more...

    Considering a 2002 coupe....advice?

    Tell Ms. Grumpy that she is under the mistaken impression that Corvettes are "guys only" cars. One ride in a C5 and she too will enjoy the admiring looks from strangers. :upthumbs

    Considering a 2002 coupe....advice?

    Yep, there are! This one has been on the lot since I bought mine (late June). Mr. Pinky wanted me to buy it but I went for the automatic, since it's my daily driver and I'm lazy. :L OK never mind, for some reason the link won't work. Trying one last time:

    2002 Console Door Won't Fully Open

    Pull it up and sort of push it toward the passenger seat. It won't break, it just has a "stop" before it goes all the way up. And if it does break - don't call me. Heh.

    Bringing a Vette from U.S. into Canada

    You could circumvent the whole problem by sticking with a 2002... Signed, I'm Just Sayin';) p.s. "Bumpers on most passenger vehicles are now manufactured to absorb most low speed collisions. The Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS #215) requires passenger car (not trucks, vans, or...

    New Member - looking to get educated

    Hi Grego! :w My recommendation: C5s are the best! ;) Also check out autotrader.com. If you want to go a tiny bit further (we're 2 hrs. from Sacramento), there are lots of great deals here in Northern Nevada, especially this time of year - gas is at an all-time high and with winter coming...
